Helmed by Rhythm Section boss Bradley Zero and producer Nathanael Williams, Jumbi is a hi-fi bar in Peckham where dancing is not just encouraged, but irresistible. Jumbi sees a steady stream of weekly events – from DJs at the weekends, to live music, open decks and quieter book clubs during the week, plus they've even turned the venue into a pop-up roller rink for certain days over the summer of 2025. Jurkish are in the kitchen, serving innovative Jamaican-Turkish fusion dishes from 12-10pm Thursdays to Saturdays, and 12-8pm on Sundays: think plantain falafel, curry goat manti dumplings, saltfish kofte and more. A one stop shop for great grub and unbeatable vibes that celebrate the Afro-Caribbean diaspora, Jumbi is a treat for all the senses - with free entry most nights (until 10pm on weekends) to boot. Order this: Jumbi's drinks list is designed 'to reflect our small island heritage with a slowly growing rum focus,' says Zero. There's a rum punch menu, a banana mai tai, and many of the rums have been selected to spotlight Black-owned brands.

Love Islander embarks on racy new business as she prepares to open ‘sex hotel' with mirrored ceilings after villa stint

A LOVE Island star has revealed their plans to open a sex hotel abroad just six months after her second villa stint. Kaz Crossley rose to fame on the ITV2 dating show in 2018 before taking part in the programme's All Stars edition earlier this year. 5 5 But now it seems that she is turning her back on TV once more in favour of a racy new business opportunity. The social media influencer has revealed her plans to open up a sex hotel in the Dominican Republic with her close pal in order to lure couples looking to get steamy out to the country. Kaz revealed she had been a fan of the sex culture in the Dominican Republic and that it had inspired her to use her fame earnings to buy land in the country in order to create her own raunchy establishment. In a video showcasing her wild lifestyle in the country, Kaz told her followers of her plans as well as giving them a first peek at the area where she will be constructing the residence. She said: "Having adult money means buying land in the Domincan Republic and building your own sex hotel. "When I first came to this country, I completely fell in love. "It is one of my favourite places. One thing that did stand out to me is the sex culture here, the cabanas and the motels. "People here love it and as someone who loves it too, I really don't get any, so I fugured why not pour that passion into a different kind of project." Kaz continued to tell her fans about her plans for the sex hotel as she discussed plans to include "tantra chairs" in order to create her dream "erotic escape" and "romantic getaway". She further confessed she wanted to fill the jungle getaway with "outdoor showers and mirrors absolutely everywhere" in order to get the couples feeling spicy in the X-rated hotel. Love Island's Kaz Crossley sizzles in tiny bikini as she gets soaked in the rain on holiday in Thailand Titled Eden, an Instagram page for the hotel described itself as "a boutique erotic jungle hideaway, privacy guaranteed". It further confirmed that mirrors would be placed "above" for couples to take a peek at themselves during more intimate moments. Fellow Love Island star Jordan Hames was one of the first to react to Kaz's venture as he seemingly confirmed that he would be taking a trip to the sex hotel. He commented underneath the post: "Excellent news I'm coming." 5 5 Another fan comment read: "Sound proof bungalows needed for sure, can't wait to visit." However, some others were slightly perplexed at Kaz's decision to open up a sex retreat. One posted: "Love you kaz but really…" Before someone else said: "So you're building a brothel." Kaz had a rollercoaster time in the All Stars villa earlier this year after enjoying snogs with both Ronnie Vint and Curtis Pritchard. She soon found herself romancing Montel McKenzie but their romance fizzled within days of leaving the villa. 5

Bafta-nominated actor Micheal Ward charged with rape and sexual assault

The 27-year-old, who has starred in Blue Story and Top Boy, said 'I deny the charges against me entirely' and said he had co-operated with police fully throughout their investigation. Ward is accused of offences against one woman in January 2023, the Metropolitan Police said. The force said he is charged with two counts of rape and three counts of sexual assault. Ward, of Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, will appear at Thames Magistrates' Court on August 28, the Crown Prosecution Service said. In a statement issued after the charges were announced, Ward said: 'I deny the charges against me entirely. 'I have co-operated fully with the police throughout their investigation and will continue to co-operate. 'I recognise that proceedings are now ongoing, and I have full faith that they will lead to my name being cleared. 'Given those proceedings, I am unable to comment further.' Following the charges, Detective Superintendent Scott Ware said: 'Our specialist officers continue to support the woman who has come forward – we know investigations of this nature can have significant impact on those who make reports.' The Jamaican-born actor was awarded the Bafta Rising Star honour in 2020 and was nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Bafta for his role in BBC's Small Axe in 2021 and the 2022 film Empire Of Light. Ward, who has 1.2 million followers on Instagram, played in the Soccer Aid match at Stamford Bridge last year and gave a reading at the Christmas Eve carol service hosted by the Princess of Wales in 2023. He is due to star in the American film Eddington alongside Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal, which is due to be released in the UK next month.
